Lennon and Darcy are back for the happiest day of their lives! Lennon Straight out of teacher training, I fell hard for my beguiling student ten short months ago. Ok, I was her teacher, but I don't care it was me that broke the rules. She's a feisty one, and call me crazy, but I know she's all I want, and I have to make her mine. So, it's back to the beach where it all began for us with the biggest question I've ever had to ask. Thank God she said yes, and now, a trip of a lifetime to Hawaii sounds perfect. A tropical paradise where we can get closer than ever. But just when I think I have it all under control, seems everything I'd planned turns to cr*p, and conspires against the happiness we both crave. And if that wasn't bad enough, a thousand-to-one chance meeting with someone from the past threatens everything. My life with her... my career... and maybe even my liberty. Darcy Ok, so I'm only nineteen, but I know my own mind. And I know I want him. He has a s*x drive that would make a Ferrari blush - matching my own perfectly. But I know what love is. This is no crush, and when Lennon takes me back to our special place to ask me to be his wife, I'm the happiest girl in the world. What could possibly go wrong? Turns out, a LOT. I thought I was smart, but when a joke I played on him backfires on me, I'm left wondering if I went too far, and he's having second thoughts about being with me. With everything working against us, our plans are in shreds. Seems our island dream is over before it's even started, but I won't give up without a fight. Come hell or high water, I'm determined to keep him in my bed, and in my heart... forever. *** This is a standalone, heart-warming new adult romance featuring the continuing hot and steamy relationship between a teacher and his former student. A Christmas holiday short story of love with no cliffhanger, no cheating, and a proper happy-ever-after. Although this can be read standalone, you may wish to read the first book, Forbidden, first. "I'm so sorry to just turn up like this, but I can't stop thinking about the other night," she whispers, looking around, furtively. "Excuse me?" I ask, checking up and down the hall to see what she's looking at. I have no idea who this girl is. "Are you sure you have the right room? I don't think we're acquainted, are we?" "Oh, wow, you don't remember me?" She shakes her head and mutters something under her breath. "Wow. I can't believe this," she says in a low voice. Her cheeks seem to redden as she looks up at me. "I'm sorry. I'll go. Forget I even came here, okay? I'm sure you will." "What the hell? Wait," I call out, but she's gone, storming off down the corridor before I can get any answers.
